Definitely watching EZA's coverage again this year. If Blood's Chrono Trigger bet comes true, I'm pretty sure they will all collectively short circuit

Dude, if Chrono Trigger reveals itself....

NO. If Chrono Trigger even gets WHISPERED, I will lose my shit. Just a fucking whisper, even from someone in the audience, lol.

We know Square it's announcing something new at E3. We also know Sony stated important japanese presence this E3.

If I had to bet, I'll say square will reveal the new Tomb Raider. But what if Cold Blooded has also changed E3's timeline with that final bet? (Honestly I thought he'll say something related with Metroid, F-Zero or Wave Racer)

Why are you reading my tag instead of the title of my post?
A new Onimusha game AND a new MM Legends game?
No way, Jose.
Why is anything impossible anymore?

I don't know who needs to win. I despise Ultima Brad, with all my soul. But to erase him, erase Brand Manager, erase Benzilla
(who, thank God he finally shaved)
?! I don't know if I can take that. The stakes. The stakes are too high.
